I go to work on Wednesdays not knowing what I will
find. Yesterday appeared to be a quiet
day until I blinked. Poof, there was a
whole library, mostly JD Robb/Norah Roberts volumes, in four giant bags. Giant.
I was grateful there were no cookbooks as we were still
suffering with an excess of enthusiasm from our patrons. Months ago the boss sent out a note asking
for cookbooks. We are still getting them
by the box load. Yesterday my goal was
to get them all priced and out on the shelves.
So I worked a little late yesterday. It was flat out fun pulling a few outdated
books and filling three shelves with cookbooks.
Then I had to fill two shelves with nonfiction. Pricing it first of course. Then…I shelved most of the Robb/Roberts and
put a whole wagon load of those out too.
There are days I feel as if I get a lot done. Yea…….
LOL
We have a chalk full secondhand bookstore in this town. Shelves are several rows deep. It looks like they are now expanding to a second house. I never go, It boggles my mind. When I say "never" I have been perhaps 3 times in our 9 years here.
ReplyDeleteglad you had it covered.
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of books. I'm like Anvilcloud in that these bookstores overwhelm me...I don't know where to start.
ReplyDeleteIt must have felt like heaven! So many books!
ReplyDeleteNice arrangement of books.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with sales.
Me? I'm reading books on and about Italy and dreaming. As for cookbooks, I have a few, but always use the same ones over and over. Making home-made gluten free bread and Cannelli bean and Chard soup. It's an Italian thing.
